He may have been just visiting people. But I hope he don't go to TNA, they have to Give the titles to Samoa Joe and Angle, then let them lead the company along with Styles.

It's pretty sad when TNA can survive off of WWE rejects. One can hope that they actually try and make at a run at WWE soon, that way we won't have to put up with the "D" show of wrestling. The best TNA was when Rhyno threw the actual ECW belt in the trash and "burned it". Along with Jeff Hardy and someone else bringing back Macho Man Randy Savage and Sting. Now I don't even care to watch TNA anymore, it's gone down the crapper as far as I'm concerned.
Back to the WWE, I hate how the "creative team" isn't even creative anymore. They just keep doing old storylines. The only good ones they came up with is the Matt Hardy / Kane / Edge fued. All the rest of them seem to be "copycat" storylines. The only good copycat storyline was the bringing back of D-Generation X. |

TNA is using those old WWE rejects to gain exposure. Then they'll raid RoH again, release all the old guys (good riddens), and have Styles/Joe lead them vs WWE. They won't get up there with WWE for a year or so, though. If you want A+ quality wrestling, search on Google video (make sure you select long durations) for some Ring of Honor matches. I would suggest Austin Aries vs Samoa Joe. Aries beats him taking the RoH title Joe held for over a year, the crowd go nuts, amazing wrestling compared to WWE.
As for WWE, GAB might be worth watching, actually. I say watching, because there's no way in hell I'm going to pay for that, hahhah!

Lol, at the Great American Bash comment there, Inuyasha16. I pretty much only will watch WrestleMania anymore, all the other Pay-Per-Views I think aren't worth my time/energy. I would say money, but usually Enigma buys them. =P
I'd have to agree with how the Creative Team isn't even creative anymore. I think "Use all old storylines 50+ times Team" suits them much better. I can't even really think of a Raw storyline right now that is original and hasn't been used before. I still remember when I actually hated some wrestlers back in my early years of watching because it all seemed so real (thanks to Creative), now it doesn't and I can't hate wrestlers as I used to. Which I kind of miss that. Really, the only wrestles I've hated throughly since 2002 would be Hulk "nWo" Hogan and Jericho. TNA I ocassionaly watch if I'm bored and it is on TV. Though I absolutely hate all their storylines, except for the hype of Sting. That was the only good time I had watching TNA. Oh well, to all their own.

They're making Christopher Daniels (amazing wrestler) feud with Sting and eventually he's going to have some dream matches with Angle, Joe, and Styles.
You can blame Stephanie McMahon. She's the head of the creative team. IMO, the WWE was best when they let Stone Cold do whatever the hell he wanted. That was his gimmick. They should pay him $50,000,000 to come back, be GM of RAW, and do whatever the hell he wants. Rock as GM would be cool too. But I think he's done.

Yeah, The Rock pretty much doesn't acknowledge his career in the WWE anymore, unless someone asks him about it. I basically think he used the business to gain Stardom so he could go off and do bigger and badder things.
As far as Stephanie McMahon, I think her Creative geniusness went down the crapper when she married Triple H. I've heard Triple H basically gets the final say on what goes and what doesn't anymore. Hence why the reason Booker wasn't happy about his move to Raw. Seeing as the last time he was there it was bascially a Triple H show seeing as he was always with the title. Having Stone Cold come back as General Manager would be great. Whosever idea it was to have Jonathan Coachman be the 'Executive Assistant' was pretty much stupid. I hate him, he doesn't really have the 'attitude' of it.

Sorry for the double post, but I found this and thought it was pretty interesting.
January 2006: Batista suffers a torn tricep during a match with Mark Henry at a WWE live event. As a result, The Animal surrenders the World Heavyweight Championship on January 10 in Philadelphia; Theodore Long holds a Battle Royal to determine a new champion while Batista undergoes surgery and is out of action for six months. Summer 2006: After losing the gold at WrestleMania in April, Kurt Angle suffers a multitude of injuries throughout the summer, most seriously a torn groin muscle in August. Later that same month, Angle is released from WWE. October 2006: Rey Mysterio, who won the gold from Angle, suffers a serious knee injury at the hands of Chavo Cuerrero. Mysterio, only three months removed from being champion, is put on the shelf indefinitely; as of this article, he still has yet to return. April 2007: King Booker, who defeated Mysterio for the gold, but lost it to Batista at Survivor Series in late-November, is knocked out of action by then-champion Undertaker. Thanks to a Tombstone on the announce table, Booker suffers a sprained and strained neck. He was never seen on SmackDown! again, as he was drafted to Raw on June 11, and has since returned to action on Monday nights. Later that same month, Undertaker suffered a torn bicep just weeks after winning the gold. Edge swooped in, picked the bones and took the title while The Deadman took a trip to the disabled list; Edge, however, solidified the curse theory by relinquishing the gold due to an injury on Tuesday night. So, yeah, I think the World Heavyweight Championship needs to move back to Raw, and the WWE Championship can go back to SmackDown!. Heck, I'd rather have an old school belt rather then a 'thug' spinner belt anyday.

I always liked the look of the WHC better than the WWE. That and because I liked wCw better, it used to be part wCw title. Ugh...so many unifications, and title retirements...can't bother to look up the lineage.

WWE's creative team is garbage. TNA's really isn't any better. So basically, they force me to a choice to watch a show making my choice solely on wrestling. And if it's based on that, TNA wins easily. WWE's wrestling matches are also, garbage. Some people like those big guys thrashing down on each other, but most do not(I know here at MFG basically everyone hates it too). Plus WWE has their divas wrestle and whatnot. Even if some of them are hot, I don't want to see them wrestle. Just eye candy, just put a few of them as managers, don't have them wrestle.
So, TNA wins. I haven't watched RAW or Smackdown in God knows how long... Oh, and UFC. [^_^] |

UFC > All.
[Insert WWE bashing statement.] Hopefully CM Punk starts to become more involved in WWE. He was a great pickup for them, and, hopefully, he's going to be a big part of their future. Anyone else a fan? Also, some news and notes from NoDQ. ---The latest WWE video game was almost complete when it was ordered to extract Chris Benoit from it. There were a lot of problems in this because they can't just so easily delete him from the game, especially considering that game so far in the process. Nonetheless, the feeling was that it would be a p.r. disaster if they released the game with Benoit as one of the star characters. The video game's team pretty much had no choice but to remove Benoit from the game. ---Jim Ross checked in with his latest blog entry where he spoke on Edge's injury, Dean Malenko making a return and much more. Below are several highlights: On Edge's Injury: I feel really bad for Edge, who will apparently be out of action for approximately 4 months due to a pec tear. Edge has arguably been one of the most valuable hands in the WWE for quite some time and is one of the overall most talented men in the company, from where I sit. Perhaps this untimely injury will be a blessing in disguise for Edge, over the long haul, as he will be able to get completely healthy before he roars back into the scene. For my money, I would say Edge will definitely have more title reigns before he decides to hang up what is shaping up to be a Hall of Fame level career. Edge was one of my signees many years ago and has always served the WWE and our fans well. Being a life long fan has helped Edge become the super star that he is, which speaks to the point that prospects should rarely be signed if they are not fans of the genre. Edge, HoF? Wow...that's...sad. -- At the 7/10 SmackDown/ECW taping in New Orleans, a number of signs were confiscated. Particularly ones reading stuff along the lines of "RIP Woman", "RIP Chris Benoit" and even "RIP Sherri Martel." They even confiscated a sign that read "We paid to see Flair." Flair wasn't at the show due to an ear injury. If anyone has ever gone to a WWE event, they make a game of confiscating signs. It's like whichever staff member confiscates the most gets the key to the divas locker room. They once confiscated one of my signs, that said "Hogan Sucks", during the Mr. America era. Lame.

These are my predictions, from not watching a single episode of RAW or Smackdown for more than two months. ![]() |
